GALLIONS Housing Association has launched a new “green” website to encourage its residents to become more environmentally active.

The site went live in June 1 and the association, which mainly serves Thamesmead, says it will provide a platform for residents to learn more about environmental issues close to home, events they can get involved with, local environmental news and give a platform for people to air their views.

Gallions has made a series of green pledges and is asking residents to each make their own pledge to do something to help the environment.
